Биография

Продюсировал фильмы

• Звездные войны: Эпизод VI: Возвращение Джэдая - 1983 (Фантастика / фэнтези)

While attending film school at the University of Southern California, Kazanjian met a young George Lucas and they soon became friends, as well as Delta Kappa Alpha cinema fraternity brothers.

In 1968, while working as a second assistant director for Francis Ford Coppola's film Finian's Rainbow, Kazanjian and Lucas (who was working as a favor to Coppola as his production assistant) crossed paths again.

Kazanjian continued his work as an assistant director on such memorable films as The Wild Bunch (1969), The Great Bank Robbery (1969) and Alfred Hitchcock's Family Plot. He also worked as the assistant director on the popular TV series "The Rockford Files" (1974).

It wasn't until he teamed up again with Lucas on More American Graffiti (1979) that Kazanjian began to take a new direction as a producer. He later worked with Lucas again to produce Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark, as well as Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi.

Kazanjian continued his role as a producer for the award-winning TV drama "JAG" (1995) and various films including The Rookie (1990) starring Clint Eastwood and Demolition Man (1993) starring Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes.

Recently, Kazanjian produced The Bridge of San Luis Rey (2004) starring Robert De Niro, Kathy Bates and Harvey Keitel.

Howard G. Kazanjian is an American filmmaker, respected producer and author, most notably having served as executive producer on Raiders of the Lost Ark and producer on Return Of The Jedi, two of the biggest films of all time.

During filming of Return Of The Jedi, Kazanjian is credited with the idea to utilize the guise of filming a fictitious movie to disguise the actual production, and throw off any press and nosy fans. The fictitious film was titled Blue Harvest, which was purported to be a horror film with the tag line "horror beyond imagination". Hats and t-shirts were printed up for the crew to wear and to further add to the authenticity of the ruse.

In 2004 Kazanjian authored The Cowboy and the Senorita : A Biography of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans ISBN 0762730536 and Happy Trails : A Pictorial Celebration of the Lives of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans ISBN 0762730897

Howard G. Kazanjian (born 1942) is an American filmmaker of Armenian descent. He is a respected producer and author with a reputation for efficiency. His early credits include being an assistant director on Alfred Hitchcock's Family Plot. He moved into film production rather than directorial work at Hitchcock's suggestion and is most notable for having served as executive producer on Raiders of the Lost Ark and producer on Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, two of the biggest films of all time.

Kazanjian graduated from the University of Southern California. While there he first met a young George Lucas, becoming not only Delta Kappa Alpha cinema fraternity brothers, but also long standing friends. During those college years, Kazanjian and Lucas both met their respective future wives and the couples would often double date.

Kazanjian is recognized as an uncredited producer on Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back, replacing producer Gary Kurtz midway through the production.

During production of Return Of The Jedi, Kazanjian is credited with the idea to utilize the guise of filming a fictitious movie to disguise the actual production, and throw off any press and nosy fans. The fictitious film was titled Blue Harvest, which was purported to be a horror film with the tag line "horror beyond imagination". Hats and t-shirts were printed up for the crew to wear and to further add to the authenticity of the ruse.

In 2004 Kazanjian authored The Cowboy and the Senorita : A Biography of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans ISBN 0762730536 and Happy Trails : A Pictorial Celebration of the Lives of Roy Rogers and Dale Evans ISBN 0762730897

Since 1998 Kazanjian has been Co-Chairman and 50% shareholder of Tricor Entertainment, Inc, an independent production company, which owns and operates a 19,000+ seat theater chain in Southeast Asia and a film distribution company.

Kazanjian lives and works in the small community of San Marino, California with his wife Carol, and three children, Peter, Noah, and Andrew. Fellow filmmaker BWL Norton with whom he worked on More American Graffiti jokingly described Kazanjian as being "like, from Mars" in a 1980 interview. [edit]
